India has dramatically increased COVID-19 vaccination rates in its vast rural hinterland, where about 65 percent of the country’s nearly 1.4 billion people live. But supply constraints remain for the world’s largest maker of vaccines and experts say it is unlikely India will reach its target of vaccinating all adults by the end of the year. India opened vaccine shots for all adults in May. But the campaign faltered in villages due to vaccine hesitancy and misinformation.
